Unfortunately, the previous owner loaded up heavy layers of grey silicone around the frame, mostly on top. I may end up with a chisel or jack hammer in my hand.
In trying to remove some other areas of silicone from the trailer, I never have completed any one area. It is a real bear. I mean hours of trying and fingernail/tip weardown.
Now you know why I loathe it so (and it doesn't even do the best job in the first place!). I'm sorry you're having to struggle with it. Donna's suggestions are good ones. You could also (carefully) use a fresh, sharp, single-edged razor blade. If so, cut off the corner tips so that they won't "snag" and scratch as easily.

If your window frames are aluminum, I wouldn't rush to paint them unless they really need it. I say that becuase it can be a challenge to get paint to really stick to them, so they can end up looking rattier than before you started.
